Information
SAVE THE DATE! The FALL ONLINE Native Shrub & Plant Sale for Asheville, NC area opens on October 1st at 9 am.
Give your yards and gardens a little local love with our Fall ONLINE Native Shrub & Plant Sale (with pick-ups in Asheville, NC). Choose from several native perennial species and shrubs, including azaleas, ornamental native plants, pollinator species, and those particularly beneficial to wildlife. All plants are sourced locally from Carolina Native Nursery. We anticipate some items selling out quickly so don’t wait to place your order!
Orders will be accepted online from October 1-31st, while supplies last. You must pay for the order at the time you submit it in order to secure your species and size of choice. Then, pick up your order in Asheville, NC on Tuesday, November 19th from 3-6 pm. Pick-up location coming soon.
**MUST pick up on Nov. 19th unless prior arrangements have been made by emailing amy@mountaintrue.org. Early pick-up is not available. Items will not be delivered until the morning of Nov. 19th. (If you can’t pick up on that date, consider asking a friend or family member to pick up on your behalf).
Native shrubs and perennials are a vital component of healthy streams and lakes. They help prevent erosion, filter pollution from runoff, and provide food and shelter for wildlife. MountainTrue staff and volunteers spend significant time and resources removing nonnative invasive plants along streams and lake shorelines to protect water quality and ensure that the native vegetation stays healthy.
**Please note: several of these plants and shrubs may be “dormant” or cut back. This is normal and not a cause for concern. Here is an article explaining dormancy in plants.
For a species description list or to sign up to receive an email when the sale goes live, please visit the event page.
Plants that are found here inspire a “sense of place” and pride in our mountain communities and promote wise stewardship and conservation of natural resources. For questions related to these or other native and invasive plant species, email Western Region Program Coordinator, Tony Ward.
